José Martins Ribeiro Nunes

José Martins Ribeiro Nunes (born 5 January 1927), also known as Zé Peixe or Joe Fish, has the profession of guiding ships safely into port. What stands out about him is that he swims to and from the ships, jumping heights of more than 40 meters (130 ft) and swimming about 10 kilometers (6 miles) a day.

José is native from Aracaju, Brazil, where he has been practicing his profession since 1947.
